Your bigger-by-the-minute twins might seem a bit scary to you — and a little exciting to your partner (too bad you won't let him touch!).

Who knew cup sizes went up this high in the alphabet? At 9 weeks pregnant, your bigger-by-the-minute twins might seem a bit scary to you (are they the breasts that ate New York City?) and a little exciting to your partner (too bad you won't let him touch!). My advice: Stay calm and start shopping for a bigger, more supportive bra. Take advantage of knowledgeable sales clerks in specialty lingerie shops to help you find the right size (and help you again two weeks from now when you outgrow the bra you just bought). You might also consider wearing a stretchy cotton sports bra while you sleep to keep those burgeoning beauties in check.
